The first issue concerns how to determine X, the estimated total cost. In this setting we will call this the 窶彡ontingency reference窶. DynRisk offers three different options for calculating this:
窶「 Base value
窶「 Mean value
窶「 50/50-value
The 窶廝ase value窶 is the value of the total cost if all uncertainty is neglected. The 窶廴ean value窶 is obtained by calculating the mean of all the simulation values. The 窶50/50-value窶 is the same as the median of the simulation values.
